The landing platform can be retracted. The X-Wing tilts up and down, and left and right. And the S-foils can be locked into attack formation for those tricky trench runs.
It takes both an EV3 and an NXT to operate this thing. The EV3 reads the position of the joystick and controls the tilt and pan of the X-Wing. The NXT reads the touch sensor buttons and controls the landing platform and the S-foils.
